Window Treatments

Windows are the most imposing element of interior architecture in almost any room. They are the primary light source in a room during the day. In addition, windows create focal points in a room and emphasize architectural elements such as fireplaces and bays. Second only to doors, windows control the placement of furniture within a room.

The type of window used in a home characterizes the style of the interior architecture. If draped properly, the treatments used on windows will pull the interior design together by uniting the colors, patterns and styles of the furniture, walls and floors. By designing a complementary window treatment, the room develops a dynamic flow. This is the primary goal in interior design. Sound easy? Well, how about challenging?
